"AFCEA has brought to me a lot of new ideas and perspectives that I could bring to my company. Without that, I think I would have been less creative with ways to help my company." - Jochen Reinhardt, Bonn E.V. Chapter

“My company, Argotis, Inc., became a corporate member of AFCEA in August 2013. Since then, I’ve been able to grow my professional connections through joining AFCEA’s various committees: Small Business Committee and EPIC. Through events such as the Holiday Networking Event, we are now discussing teaming for opportunities with other member companies of AFCEA. I have been a part of several subcommittees, and I know joining AFCEA was one of the best decisions I made to help build our company network. My VP/COO has attended the “Federal Contracting” courses AFCEA has offered, which has greatly helped us in our proposal process." – Nischit Vaidya, EPIC Member, President/CEO – Argotis, Inc.
